Still in Iceland

The harbour is full of these eider-ducks


The lake in the city centre was yesterday full of these elegantly raffish waterfowl

and I'd like to know what they are; they were gone today.

We got up at 1pm, met up with James's friends Brendan and Lauren, and breakfasted on lobster soup and minke-whale kebab in the self-proclaimed Best Lobster Soup Shop In The World, before wandering around the town some more




The sun set elegantly over the sea, we headed to a supermarket and got the makings of cup-cakes, and plan for an evening involving mostly baking.

That ID matches whats in my bird books. Birds of the North. They are probably en route to their winter quarters (which include north Africa).
